age, securely mount/attach the
laser before starting an operation. Injury/damage
may occur if the laser falls.
Mounting/Adjusting the Laser Level
The pivot bracket can be used to mount the laser
level in multiple ways:
• Use the embedded magnets to secure the laser level
to steel studs, steel beams, etc.
• Use the keyhole slot to hang the laser level on the
wall with a nail or screw.
• Set the laser level on a flat surface.
• Position the laser and/or wall mount on a stable
surface.
• Use the 1/4"-20 or 5/8"-11 threaded insert to mount
on a tripod.
• Once the level is mounted, use the micro adjustment
knobs to fine tune the laser line.

performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in hazard-

Perform the Accuracy Field Check

procedure immediately upon unboxing
of each new Laser Level and before exposure to
jobsite conditions. See "Accuracy Field Check"
for information.
Turning On/Off
To turn on the laser and unlock the pendulum, rotate
the On/Off dial to the desired position. The remaining
battery life will be displayed. WARNING! Do not look
directly into laser apertures. Laser Mode Indicator
LED will display, and horizontal level line will imme-
diately be emitted from aperture in the laser housing.
ON
Turns ON the laser and unlocks the pendu-
lum to enable self-leveling.
ON Turns ON the laser but does not unlock the
pendulum (self leveling is disabled). The
laser lines will flash once every 8 seconds
to indicate that the projected lines are not
level or plumb.
NOTICE: The
leveling and therefore is not intended for
projecting a level or plumb line.
OFF Turns OFF the laser and locks the pen-
dulum. When not in use, turn off the tool
and store the Laser Level in the protective
carrying case.
Use the MODE button to cycle through the three
laser modes:
Horizontal Level Line
Vertical Plumb Line & Plumb Points
Perpendicular Level & Plumb Points
The green laser mode indicators will display the
selected mode.
Using the Laser Level
1. For best results, place the tool on a work surface
that is:
• sturdy
• level (within 4 degrees of true level)
ON mode disables self-
• free of vibrations
• 90° to the work area
2. Turn on the tool.
3. The tool will self-level when placed on surfaces
within 4 degrees of true level when dial is unlocked
and on.
4. The tool is ready once the emitted lines are con-
tinuous and no longer moving on the work surface.
5. If the tool cannot achieve a level state (i.e., the
work surface is > 4 degrees off true level), the laser
beams will flash rapidly (3 flashes per second).
Relocate or adjust the work surface.
Troubleshooting
If the tool does not turn on:
• Ensure battery is installed properly. Fuel gauge
should indicate remaining charge when correctly
installed.
• Ensure battery is charged.
• Ensure the tool's internal temperature is within
specified operating ranges. If stored in excessive
heat or cold, allow at least 2 hours to acclimate to
ambient temperature before turning on the tool.
If problem persists, please contact a MILWAUKEE
service facility for support.
ACCURACY FIELD CHECK
Perform the Accuracy Field Check
NOTICE
procedure immediately upon unboxing
of each new Laser Level and before exposure to
jobsite conditions. See "Accuracy Field Check"
for information. Should any deviation from listed
p r o d u c t a c c u r a c y b e f o u n d , p l e a s e c o n -
tact a MILWAUKEE service facility. Failure to do so
could result in rejection of warranty claim.
Influences on Accuracy
Ambient temperature gradients can impact laser
accuracy. For accurate and repeatable results, the
following procedure should be conducted with the
laser elevated off the ground and placed in the center
of the working area.
Abusive treatment of the Laser Level, such as exces-
sive impacts from drop, can also lead to deviations
in product accuracy.
Therefore, it is recommended to conduct the Field
Check procedure after any impact or before complet-
ing any critical jobs.
Horizontal Height Accuracy
A free measuring distance of approximately 66' on a
firm surface between two walls or structures A and
B is required for this check.
It is also suggested to mount the Laser Level to a
Tripod for easy adjustment.
1. Securely mount the tool within 1' of wall A.
